I am Madelyn Daphney, mother of beautiful and brave Josehpine Rose and cat mommy to clingy and cuddly Dapper Dan.

I'm 24-years-old, a full-time, online student majoring in Business Management Technology, and a stay-at-home-mom.

I am a fighter and survivor of several different mental disorders that make my life difficult at times.

I am a writer; I journal, blog, write short stories, have written an unpublished children's book, and am a contributing writer for several online mental health communites and mental health magazines.

Autum is my favorite season and s'mores are my favorite food.

I enjoy Italian and Mediterraian food, fruity alcoholic beverages, and strawberry milkshakes.

I spend my days with my 16-month-old daughter playing with her, snuggling with her, and doing my best to be the best mother she deserves.

I'm not a very active individual, but I do enjoy taking my daughter on walks to the library and post office.

I enjoy writing, which is why I am here.
